property overview

Villa Kennedy is a luxury hotel that gets design, service and the overall vibe just right.

Particularly in cities known for their business edge and fast pace like Germany's Frankfurt,
finding a luxury hotel that gets design, service and the overall vibe just right is a joy. Villa Kennedy is such a place. A
stone’s throw from the river Main, as well as from the city's best bars, restaurants and cultural sites, the property
occupies restored Villa Speyer, the former home of the Beit von Speyer family, which dates back to 1904. The exterior
may be all Neo-Gothic opulence but interiors are hip, breezy and comfortable. The elegant colonnade restaurant,
Gusto, is a local hotspot and serves an Italian menu and special late breakfast on weekends. During the summer
months it opens directly onto the tree-lined inner courtyard—an oasis within a metropolis.
